LE COLLECTIONNEUR (OR, CONFESSIONS OF A SKIRT CHASER)
By: Antoine Doinel
(This is a variation on the name theme of my previous list)
Here is a “personal” collection of films that are named after exceptionally beautiful and unique female characters, the actresses whom played the roles were often the filmmakers’ muses and the films play out as cinematic portraits, capturing and ‘immortalizing’ their sublime beauty. In many ways this list acts as a journal, tracing my cinematic ‘crushes’.
